What the Dominoes Tell

11... Are a Most Entertaining Way of Telling Fortunes, and
Fortune Telling Is Always Fun.

make herself popular even in
this enlightened. sophisticated age.

whether she does it by means of
apple parings or through looking
raptly into a snippet-yam.“ it
doesn't matter what her system.
She may have learned it from s
Hindoo mystic who learned it from
some far-famed seer of his own
country. or she may have learned;
it from a book on card tricks that
she bought for a quarter. And
there is
usually a measure of credulity in
the manner of the person whose
fortune she is telling—especially
if what she tells is of a datterins

interestingly enough

nature.

I
Did you ever hear of telling for-,

tunes with dominoes? it is just
a little different from the card
method. The way to proceed is to
‘lay the dominoes out on a table
face downward. They should be
well shuffled and then every one
who consults the oracle draws in
three dominoes. These three domi
noes tell his fate.

Here are the meanings.

Double blank: Some trouble
ahead. coming from unexpected
quarter.

Double one: A friend of your
childhood will reappear and play
an impbrtant role in your life.

Double two:
granted.

Double three: An inheritance.

Double four: You will succeed
through the good will and influence
of some one whom you have sup-

'posed to be unfriendly to you.

Double five: An investment you
have in mind will turn out suc-
cessfully.

Double six: Through co-opera-
tion with one of the opposite sex.
younger than yourself. you will
succeed in some important underk
taking

Blank one: Some one is plot-
ting against you.

T is the next. best thing'to going
I abroad -— choodng gifts for
friends that are going. And
next best to that. perhaps. is
choosing gifts for friends that are

 

bright blue leather ‘

going Just across the continent or
to Canada or to Florida~—only we
‘don't often give gifts to friends
goin these shorter distances.

T e thing is that it is fun to gift
our traveling friends.

The choice of. gift. of course.
must be made with due regard to
the taste of the friend who is
going away. it is foolish to give
a chronic surerer from indiges-
tion something to eat. It is
equally foolish to give books to
the man or woman with an ever-
sion to reading.

But the shops offer all sorts of
suggestions so that you will have
no difllculty in choosing something
that is just right.

To begin with the things to eat
—-and they are usually appriprlste.
as not many of our friends suner
from chronic indigestion. There
are all sorts of tempting baskets
and boxes oi .eatables to be had
for varying prices. For flve dol-

lars you can buy a good-looking
basket, containing a pound of
chocolates, a jar of sugar candy
and an assortment of line fruit.
For the same price you canbuy
a basket containing littl‘e jars of
jams and a tin of biscuits to eat
with them. There there are
baskets containing a package of
tea. a box of sweet biscuits. a box
of mints. and a little equipment
for boiling water for the tea—also
d teacup, saucer. plate and spoon.
if you wish. Other food bones
and baskets have various packages
of cookies and fruit cake with
fruit and candles.

If You Choose “ma ’

Flowers are always an accept-
able gift" for the traveler. For
everybody likes flowers—at least
those who do not are so few and
far between that they do not
count.

Most florists make a specialty of
arranging baskets and boxes for

 

 

travelers. Some of them have
enameled baskets containing a tin

Gifts for the Traveler

There Are So Many Chanting Things that One Hopes to Have
Many Friends Going Journeying.

water holder inside.\ so that the
flowers remain fresh. The flowers
must of course be chosen accord-
ing to the season. But just re-
member that the hardler flowers
stand up better in warm weather.
Roses, at this time of year. are so
likely to wither quickly.

There are all sorts of other
things to give. Books, for in-
stance. Bome of the book shops
make a specialty of boxes contain-
ing books and magazines «two or
three best sellers. a couple of popu-
lar magaslnes and perhaps one or
two new travel books. You can.
of course. choose your own assort-
ment of books. if on want to. and
so make your box of reading mat-
ter particularly appropriate to the
friends you are giving it to

And then there are such things
as leather-covered writing pads.
leather holders for guide books-—
and say what he may. almost any
traveler at times has recourse to
a good guide book—and various
sorts of toilet accessories done up
for traveling:

There is an interesting chintz
traveling case. big enough to hold
all your toilet accessories it is
made so that. when it is unwound.
it can be hung on a wall or door.
At the bottom a stiffened osten-
siou stands out like a little shelf.
Toward the top there is a mirror.
so that you can shave or dress the
hair before it quite comfortably.

Them There's Coffee

A clever restaurant. noted for
its good coffee. puts up a package
of small vacuum bottles of coffee.
These are for gifts to persons who
are particularly fussy about the
sort of coffee they drink who are
therefore not likenly to approve of
shipboard coffee.

You can do much to enhance
the looks of your gifts if you wrap
them in interesting fashion. You
can buy figured wrapping paper
for thc' purpose—some shops will
wrap your parcels for you in this
gift paper. Of course if you send
flowers or fruit or- books from a
shop that makes a specialty of do.
livering to steamers. you needn’t
worry about the wrapping. These
shops make a specialty of sending
their gifts attractiver wrapped.
They realise that first impressions
count for much and that an attrac-
tive parcel bearing their imprint
has won a friend bpfors it is
opened.

Summer

IIN one small town a few weeks
1 ago every bit of cretonne that

the two or three dry goods
stores had in stock was sold but.
before they had had time to order
more. The sad for cretonne coats
had hit the town—oand before the
storekeepers knew what it was all
about every girl in the place had
planned to make a wrap of this
description for herself. This fed
for cretonne coats seemingly began
before colleges and schools had
disbanded for the summer and
now that girls are flocking to the
lake and seashore the cretonne
coat is even more in demand.
Some girls make their own costs.
but. it is almost always a better
plan to buy one ready made, for

though simple they are not easy
to make. Some girls have several
different cretonne coats to go with
dinerent frocks. They are espe-
cially attractive on the beach. but
they are worn by many young
motorists.

Some group of ouug girls
somewhere started e fad this
summer of wearing on! sailor

"pants" for leisure hours out~
doors. They protect the logs from
undue sunburn and flies and mos-
quitoes. yet they are quite com—
fortable. So after or before your
swim. you can just slip a pet;- of
sailor s trousers over our swim-
ming suit. and if you li a. top this
on with some sort of lersey iaekat
or sweater and you have a com-
fortable costume for idling about
the beach. for sailing. paddling or
rowing.
